Magdalena Eriksson, what a classy player and captain.

[@princeboateng8293]

its funny how this team won week in week out yet there was so much tension in the squad

[@bookclub5021]

That should tell you about what life is like is a lot of dressing rooms - high intensity, high pressure situations every single week and these players are also dealing with interpersonal problems, relationship issues, insecurities, egos etc. A lot of the stuff that we hear from players and coaches is mostly PR if I'm honest, and then we're quick to bash journalists who report of friction or bad blood in a squad because a player or two has come out and rubbished it - I'm thinking about the Rudiger being a bit of a bully towards academy players stories about 2 years ago.

[@rosiegiesler4705]

I don’t think there was tension in the dressing room I think there was pressure in the dressing room. Nobody was antagonistic towards each other except Romana. Everyone was competitive but the drive was to win not to create drama or tension.

[@REALCrazyCritic]

@@rosiegiesler4705agree with you

[@geylussac9193]

This documentary so far has opened my eyes to know more about women football, being a professional footballer and being a Chelsea woman football club player. Clearly there are more to being a footballer than what goes on on the pitch. The real deal are what goes behind the scenes. I love these series. 👍💙

[@badommadonna1624]

I love Magda so much. She's such a strong personality and an excellent player

[@Scartomuffin]

The only thing that i've put "notification on" on youtube is this series. Excellent stuff. And im not even a Chelsea fan.

[@tole1204]

I'm not even a Chelsea fan but I really love this series. Other teams need to do this as well

[@omotovhmercy2557]

I really feel for Cooper. She was so well behaved

[@Vince-tp5vr]

After watching this series in comparison to the Lionesses preparation for the Euro, I have a whole level of appreciation for Sarina Wiegman’s style of management. The England team were spot on serious, but clearly enjoyed their practice. Sarinna Wiegman would point out what could be better, instead of beating down players for their mistake. I wish Chelsea women luck in the CL.

[@AN-cy7xm]

I see a lot of myself in Bachmann. I've been my own worst enemy several times. I've needed to smile and be supportive of others when I wasn't feeling secure myself, too. I guess it's easier to see when it's someone else : )

[@bd9531]

I think we've all been there at some point, even now... :-)

[@raemongill19]

I find it interesting which players they decided to highlight/focus on. Very little Kirby, Magda, Millie, Ji…. Some of the most important players to the squad.

[@annefutterer7736]

Probably chose to focus on the characters with the most "interesting" stories, or those who really wanted to be featured.

[@goldboy150]

Not all players gave them extensive interviews. They focused on Beth, sam, Jess, Ramona, Deanna and, to a lesser extent, Magda because they gave them the best access and had compelling stories.

[@hanifkasyfillah]

@@tafadzwaleomazingaizo3297 what it said?

[@REALCrazyCritic]

@@goldboy150exactly this

[@nicholasfml]

I definitely think they should make more these types of series for both the men and women games.

[@Iwaxberrox]

Thank you so much for making this series and especially as a Chelsea fan myself. I have developed a bigger connection to the club now. I will support our women’s team with the same passion as our men’s 💪

[@bd9531]

Ramona was her own worst enemy. Her lack of team-first attitude and focus on herself first was clearly a factor affecting her role and priority in the team. The immaturity is a bit of a surprise. EDIT: After reflecting on this further I think maybe Emma should've done a better job with Ramona too? This series glosses over what went on but it's hard not to get the impression Emma should've done more to refocus and remotivate Ramona.

[@JazzFunk22]

She's sitting on the bench at PSG now overrated and not a team player and hating on Sam Ramona Wants all the attention what a diva . 🤭 🦘🐨

[@alexlaflame4328]

She didn’t say anything bad about Sam. Nobody like to be in the bench

[@bd9531]

@@alexlaflame4328 It's not about whether she said anything about Sam. It's just obvious she was very focused on her own starting position as a priority ahead of the team though, no doubt affecting her relationships and trust with manager and team-mates --> ie the "belonging" thing Sam was talking about. If she'd put more focus on the team she would've improved her relationships, probably gotten more playing and scoring opportunities, possibly even recovered better, and gone some way to solving her problems. The counter-example is Sam actually: she's very team-first focused and unselfish (to a fault), but this ultimately leads to more playing time and personal rewards for Sam too, not less.

[@alexlaflame4328]

@@bd9531 Make sense I didn’t really think about it that way before. I just think that deep down every one want to showcase their talent and contribute, been always on the bench affect the players massively . it’s just the way some of them deal with it cause not everyone in the team really feel what they are feeling at time. But yea I believe what you say make perfect sense.

[@bd9531]

​@@alexlaflame4328 Yeh, I agree in reality the dynamics aren't so simple and also this doco just shows a snippet of what really went on. Obviously all of the players want to start and a level of competition to do so within the squad is healthy. But it seems Ramona had a unhealthy level of direct focus on it some of the time, when she probably would've been better served herself by focusing more on the team.

[@bubajammeh9634]

I really enjoyed watching this documentary

[@RITA-gc2dv]

Proud of my Swedish girls Magda & Jonna! ❤You are truly team players and show the same you behind the scenes as we get to see in public. I also feel very sad for Sam! Ramona Bachmann had her peak at a very young age. She started playing in the Swedish league at the age of 17. At that time, women's football was mostly professional in Sweden & Germany. Bachmann and Marta were the big stars in the Swedish league. Ramona was a goal machine. And then other European countries and clubs started to invest in women's football. When she started playing in European clubs, she hasn't performed well at all. Many players tend to become great players and more complete the older you get. But in her case, it has been the opposite. When she was young, she was the big star. And the older she's gotten, the worse she's gotten. I don't like her behaviour, but I can still understand her. I think it's been difficult for her to go from being the big star to being benchwarmer. Accepting it! While Ramona was at her best in the Swedish league, Magda was a bench warmer. Now she's captaining her team. 👀Just a thought!

[@RITA-gc2dv]

I do remember Magda sayin when she became captain of Chelsea. That she wanted to bring some Scandinavian mentality and leadership into this team. Now I know what she meant 😂

[@mr.barima5]

This documentary is very interesting. I can't wait for the male's especially with Lukaku's situation because football is not just about playing and fans watching

[@barclayswsltv]

I'm stuck on the Deanne cooper game time situation....it's so unfortunate...I just hope Emma has a plan on squad rotation rather than making players to sit on the bench for that long cause I believe everyone at Chelsea women is competitive

[@smallGatsby]

Just look what happened to Berger this season. Admittedly her performance in the match arsenal v Chelsea has been very poor and since then, berger sat on the bench max. Berger has had so many great performances in the past, it's unfortunate that she likely killed all her chances at playing with one poor performance.

[@bd9531]

Sam Kerr 5:38 : "In the men's game you have to play well to belong. In the women's game you have to belong to play well" ... Seems like nonsense to me. Would've thought belonging & playing well go together just the same for both men's and women's games. But interested in peoples thoughts on this...

[@dxcomic]

My observation as dad of a daughter playing in the NCAA, I get that there's a difference. My wife with a PhD and expert in Women's Studies, Equity etc. would also say there shouldn't be a difference, but (for whatever reason, nature/nurture/culture/patriarchy) coaching women requires another dimension. Can't say I understand it, but this rings true to me having heard behind-the-scenes stories for 3 years.

[@bd9531]

@@dxcomic Ok, interesting, thanks for the comment. Yes, I guess there might also just be a difference in the definition of "belonging" at elite football level when the men's team members are all payed ~100x the rate of the women too, right? Or at least reason for other differences. But your observation regarding "another dimension" coaching women vs men is interesting. I think I'm definitely premature suggesting Sam's comment might be "nonsense".

[@cw2962]

It's a team game and if you don't belong it's easy to control it you get the chances to play well if team cohesion is f'd up

Reason please?

[@Tookie_mots]

How though? 😂👀

[@babrachitare7247]

Why

[@bd9531]

@@Tookie_mots Another way to look at it is top managers innovate and transform teams to play significantly better than just the sum of their parts. That's not really happening at Chelsea at the moment: Chelsea have been playing about as well as you would expect the sum of their parts to play, given they've got some of the best players in the world in the squad. This is born out by the empirical evidence this past season: Chelsea only *just* won the league and were far too easily dumped from uwcl. They were very lucky to get to the uwcl final the previous season too.

[@bd9531]

Interesting episode but it's clear now this series should have twelve parts, not six... It will be absurd to have it end just when things start to get interesting with progress in uwcl, etc.

[@bd9531]

[@davidaddy2707]

how was it handed to Chelsea if I may ask?

[@bd9531]

@@davidaddy2707 They're complaining (tongue-in-cheek I think) about Chelsea being awarded the 2019/2020 WSL title based upon points-per-game. The title had to be awarded to a team despite some fixtures not being played due to Covid etc. Man City was one point ahead of Chelsea, but had played one more game. Chelsea had won 2.6 pts/game, Man City 2.5 pts/game. Kris would seem to be suggesting Man City should've been awarded the title regardless. Ridiculous.

[@bd9531]

@@davidaddy2707 Also worth pointing out Chelsea and Man City still played twice in the 2019/2020 season: a 2-1 Chelsea win at home and a 3-3 draw at City. So the head-to-head was also in Chelsea's favor.
